contents We give a description of the formal neighborhoods of the components of the boundary divisor in the Deligne-Mumford moduli stack $\overline{\mathcal M}_g$ of stable curves in terms of the extended clutching construction that we define. This construction can be viewed as a formal version of the analytic plumbing construction. The advantage of our formal construction is that we can control the effect of changing formal parameters at the marked points that are being glued. As an application, we prove that the infinitesimal neighborhood of the boundary component $Δ_{1,1}$ in $\overline{\mathcal M}_2$ is canonically isomorphic to the infinitesimal neighborhood of the zero section in the normal bundle. As another application, we show how to study the period map near the boundary components $Δ_{g_1,g_2}$ in terms of the coordinates coming from our extended clutching construction.
